Default Pest Control Advice

Hi,
I am looking for input on pest control people who just do around the house. This is not for lawn pests but for potential house pest/termites. Is it needed?
Can you recommend some quality people you may have used. thank you for responding.........

Been using Deans since 2013, and if necessary, they will do inside also.

Can anyone share any roach treatment and removal cases ?

How about a rental house you had with a roach issue caused by a renter ?

Welcome to Florida. Solution to roaches-they call em water bugs here. No roaches.

A renter. Assuming they are gone, if, it was my problem, I would get rid of all food they may have left and buy those fogging insecticide spray packs. Next day vacuum up all the dead insects. You will be shocked at how many more than the ones you see there are.

I had Massey for 6 years and never had any pests in the house. I cancelled their service about a year ago and bought a container of Ortho Home Defense with a battery opereated sprayer for about $20. I sprayed it around the outside perimeter of the house, and still have no pests inside.

Note the this will not keep out termites. Termites require a chemical injected into the ground.
